In a freezing service station, I’m nauseous with my own impatience, teeth chattering and body jerking with petulance, disdain and anger and frustration. Lost people grasping cards and plates, queuing for food and hate, lost to a place that hates them. But the WiFi’s good and the coffee’s sickening, And I sneer at these fellow excretions wanting to vomit all over them as though they were nothing but their parental secretion. Hold it in. Breathe it in. Hold back. Genuflect. Genuinely reflect that nothing that you think will come to that. There’s no time for absent ramblings, get it down with meter and timings, sampling as much as you can absorb before the clouded fug of words becomes dispersed by the sandwich carrying herd. Sitting. Sipping. Give me some. Give me something other than your shitting daily bread and useless thoughts Hands up for cheap vases. Make a difference when you stop and polish up and get noshed off in the toilets! Gagging, shagging, fucking Parma violets. Like ham. You gammon man. Woman. Fraility. This Fragility. Thou art broken, busted down and out. And now the lines are sounds.
